    Re: Missconceptions Of DIII Auction House

    Not that I play WOW anymore but they have reasons for what they do. Their not just trying to screw everybody over.



    Actually they did add 5 huge new areas with heavily cinematic based quests, changed the structual landscape of all the existing areas, changed every quest in the old areas (bigger than all the expansions put together) and tons more.



    Also they charge tso much to transfer server so people dont server jump all the time. Also the charge is there because it takes them effort to move the charecter since the games infrastructure doesnt handle it very well. PLUS they are giving out free transfer all the time from bad servers PLUS they are letting people who dont play anymore have cataclysm for free, level a charecter straight to 80 and transfer a charecter free despite all that.



    The game isnt easy as " ". It still takes 2 months for 1% of raiding guilds to down the last boss of that tier. Too easy?... It may be a little easier but not THAT easy.

    1. They are making these changes to make more money, nothing else, they simplified wow, compromised the difficulty of the game to get more subs. the equivalent to reducing the size of a football pitch so people dont have to run as far, its a game and should be difficult.

    2. They didnt redesign all of the landscapes, they just added some shit, to make it look a little different and removed any possible bugged areas that could be reached from allowing flying in azeroth. They rehashed as opposed to added more content, dungeons included.

    3. They have a fee on character transfers to make more money, if they didnt want people abusing the system if they were to make it free, then they could simply just add a long cooldown on it, or ya know, look after the population of their servers by merging underpopulated servers, and trust me there are alot of underpopulated servers.

    4. Their recent generous scroll of resurrection promotion is to help boost their subs again as they have dropped alot over the last few years.. 10mil subs my ass! The reason they are giving cata for free is because its as good as over, the only big patch left is the transition one for MoP. Which guess what, they will have to buy! Its all more money for them

    5. When i say WoW is easy, i mean in comparison to older days, making all bosses easyish and then making the last boss and maybe one other very hard is not making a hard game. Back in Vanilla/TBC you had to work your ass off to see the content/get epics. There was a time when some bosses could take weeks to conquer, now a hard time on a boss is maybe having to spend one evening on him.. Now everything is easy to obtain, doing heroic modes gets you the same item in a different colour with a slight boost to stats. Big fuggin whoop! Last time i raided was WOTLK and the only difficult boss was the LK on heroic, but my guild and most guilds i joined after werent overly pushed on killing him as they already knew what happens

    They usually let people transfer as many characters as they want when a server reaches overpopulation for free.
    Some people prefer the low population servers, no reason to always give the high population servers a way out.

    Then why would you choose a underpopulated realm in the first place?

    You will find a lot of assholes in this game? With an low populated server you will more and likely find newer players, kinder players and less Trolls in the game to mess up your experience. Most High Populated servers are very old, some being as old as an original BETA server (like my first WoW server). Those servers have more elitists, more trolls and more flat out assholes.
